How to pay tax from Google Adsense
Tax authorities, to date, have not provided official explanations on the taxation of fees received by residents of the Russian Federation from Google Adsense. Therefore, based on the existing legal and tax legislation, I recommend the following:
In accordance with Art. 209 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation: "... The object of taxation is income received by taxpayers: from sources in the Russian Federation and (or) from sources outside the Russian Federation for individuals who are tax residents of the Russian Federation.

But in accordance with the Civil Code of the Russian Federation: "Under the entrepreneurial activity, it is understood as an independent activity carried out at its own risk aimed at the systematic receipt of profits from the use of property, the sale of goods, the performance of work or the rendering of services by persons registered as such in the manner prescribed by law 1 st.2 of the Civil Code).
